Waterford FC is pleased to announce the signing of Remi Thompson for the remainder of the 2022 SSE Airtricity First Division season.
The 20-year-old attacking midfielder learned his trade with Fulham FC before moving to Manchester United. At 16, he moved to Huddersfield Town where he was part of their U-18 set-up before signing with Merstham in the Isthmian League Division One South.
Speaking to WaterfordFC.ie after signing Thompson said:
“I’m really happy to be here. I’ve been down to a couple of matches recently and you can see it’s a great club to be around. The fans, the stadium, and all the people working behind the scenes make it a good place to come and play football.
“I can’t wait to get onto the pitch and show everyone what I’m about. Training has been excellent since I’ve come in and there’s a great buzz around the dressing room. Hopefully I can add to that and help push the club forward.”
